OMAR
3 reviews on 1 places
One of old mosques that has unique design to have a look inside.
If you are interested in mosques so this must be one your places in list.
Some info:
The mosque's construction is considered all the more remarkable as it coincided with the devastation wrought by the Black Plague, which struck Cairo repeatedly from the mid-14th century onwards.[4][1] Its construction began in 1356 CE (757 AH) and work proceeded for three years "without even a single day of idleness".[5] In fact, work appears to have continued even up to 1363, even after Sultan Hasan's death, before eventually ceasing.[1] An inscription on the mosque notes the name of amir Muhammad ibn Biylik al-Muhsini as the supervisor of the construction of the mosque. Unusually, his name was placed near Sultan Hasan's in the inscription, which demonstrates how important the undertaking of the project must have been.[1] The amir's high standing otherwise was another indication of this prestige, as he was appointed governor of Cairo in 1330 and oversaw other construction projects including the renovation of the hippodrome established by al-Zahir Baybars near the Citadel.

It’s good to go and see this wooden bridge but the government isn’t looking after it.
There is a piece of the roof broken and may fall down any time.
